Yet, for all of this impracticality, McLaren will charge each of the 149 Elva buyers the sum of $1,690,000 for the privilege of owning one. It makes no sense at all, which makes it a superb supercar.

Supercars were never meant to be friendly and accessible enough for daily use. It takes away too much of the charm. For proof, look no further than the McLaren MP4-12C.

We can&#39;t think of a single modern car, but rather a slew of vehicles that existed between 2005 to 2012 - the Porsche 911 997.2 GT3 4.0, for example. Not fast by today&#39;s standards, but what we wouldn&#39;t give to have one of those standing in the garage. Manufacturers just kept on making cars faster, simply to beat each other to 60 mph, and around the N&#252;rburgring Nordschleife.

Design is the main talking point here, with the Elva not having a roof or windscreen. This allowed McLaren's designers to create a car that's a rolling sculpture.

All features are operated via an eight-inch touchscreen interface. A marine-grade sound system can be ordered but won't add to the cost of the McLaren Elva. Safety-wide, the Elva comes standard with two airbags, ABS, three-stage traction control, and a rearview camera.

Finally, we love the way the exterior and interior blend seamlessly together. The edge of the door doesn't stop to accommodate an electric window that separates the outside from the inside. Instead, it spills over into the cabin, creating even more pleasant design features to look at.

When it comes to this level of exclusivity, customers aren't limited by a color palette. After the order is made and the deposit is paid, McLaren's MSO department will coordinate closely with the customer to build a car to their exact specification. So, if you want your Elva to match the gemstones on your pimp goblet, McLaren will happily comply.

In the Elva, it produces 804 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. The power output is slightly higher than the Senna's, but torque is precisely the same.

All of these angry horses are sent to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. This magnificent powertrain, which can trace its roots back to the MP4-12C, is nearing the end of its life. Given the recent non-hybrid McLaren introductions, we get the feeling this is the most it can get out of this engine without resorting to hybrid assistance.

Not to mention the all-new 3.0 V6 hybrid engine that will make its debut shortly. Still, 804 hp and 590 lb-ft is a lot, especially when powering a car that weighs around 700 lbs less than a BMW M2 CS. The insane power to weight ratio is reflected in the acceleration figures.

According to independent tests, it will do 0 to 60 mph in 2.7 seconds. Getting to 124 mph takes 6.7 seconds and the Elva should be able to complete the quarter-mile in below ten seconds. Vin Diesel would be proud, but he'd need to apply some sunscreen to his noggin before driving this car.

It fits in with the overall lightweight theme and increases the performance. The seven-speed dual-clutch transmission comes with a Launch Mode. Like the Senna, the gearbox can also be tamed via selectable driving modes, one of which is comfort.

There is a mode that will enable you to let it go sideways for a second or two, but the electronic nannies are always on hand to get it back in line. Purists frown at the idea, but we're not big fans of poking 804 angry horses with a stick. Track-focused tires are a no-cost extra, which hints at what this car is all about.

It's not so much the exhaust noise, which you can't hear over 40 mph, but the concept of being fully exposed to the elements. And that, combined with the sheer speed, is magical.

Using 50 percent of the latent performance is more than enough to get you giggling on a test drive, should you ever be lucky enough to have the opportunity to get behind the wheel. If McLaren included the full hardcore Senna suspension, this car would have been nothing more than a sensory overload. An angry, hardcore roofless machine that takes no prisoners.

Unfortunately, while we like McLaren interiors, for the most part, they are pretty bland. You get the sense that the designers were so obsessed with the exterior that they forgot to plot something equally pleasing for the inside. When it comes to the Elva, there isn't a separation between the exterior and interior.

There's no interior storage space, apart from a single cupholder under the center armrest which is too small for any drink we know of. If you want to drink a refreshing beverage while driving the Elva, you'll have to resort to the old squeeze between the thighs trick.

More than anything, the interior of the Elva is as much a feat of engineering as it is a piece of art. We love the way functional items like the vents are incorporated into the design elements. The entire steering unit, including the digital instrument cluster and newly-developed Active Dynamics switch, is adjustable.

As we mentioned earlier, the interior and exterior are meant to be one unit. While there are some features, the interior should be viewed as a piece of art and should be enjoyed that way as well. We love the simple steering wheel without buttons, and the way the hood curves over and forms part of the dashboard.

McLaren uses marine-grade speakers and installs them directly behind the headrests for obvious reasons. We wouldn't bother, seeing as it would have to compete with the wind noise and the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 soundtrack, delivered via four exhaust outlets with titanium finishers.

As an MSO product, there is a massive list of things they can do to the car. Highlights include pinstriping, hand-painted decals, an exposed gloss carbon fiber body, and white gold or platinum badges. <h2>What McLaren Elva Model Should I Buy </h2> There's only one variant of the Elva for sale, and with a production run of just 149 units (down from the 399 originally planned), it's improbable two will ever be the same.

Compared to the Elva, the Aston is underpowered. Its peak power output of 690 hp and 555 lb-ft of torque are no match for the Elva's 800+ hp output.

The Elva weighs less as well. Still, our entire argument for the existence of these cars is that numbers aren't as significant as we may think.

Style and pantomime are equally important, and to our eyes, the Aston looks cooler. The piece of bodywork that runs between the drive and passenger obscures most of the interior, but who cares? We also prefer the V12 soundtrack.

It just looks so much cooler and is a proper design homage to race cars of old. The Ferrari is also powered by a naturally aspirated V12 as used in the 812 Superfast, one of the best naturally-aspirated engines ever made. At 8,500 rpm, it produces a staggering 799 hp.

Your ears will bleed. But in a good way. Still, the Elva boasts more power, even though it's not as vocal.

Up to 60 mph, they're similarly matched, but the Elva is a significant 0.8 seconds quicker to 124 mph. Choosing between these two cars is a ridiculous notion.

Anyone with $1.7 million to spend on a silly toy likely has a billion in the bank. It's like deciding between the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder, and LaFerrari all over again. Just get all three.

One thing worth noting is that you can legally import an Elva for public road use. Ferrari refuses to design a windscreen for the Monza SP1/SP2, which means they can only be imported under strict regulations.
